now to redefine his social obligations and his functions, particularly in the realm of making judgments
about such ethical problems as man's control of his environment or his manipulation of genes to direct
further evolutionary development.


As a result of recent discoveries concerning hereditary mechanisms, genetic engineering, by which human
traits are made to order, may soon be a reality. As desirable as it may seem to be, such an
accomplishment would entail many value judgments. Who would decide, for example, which traits
should be selected for change? In cases of genetic deficiencies and disease, the desirability of the change
is obvious, but the possibilities for social misuse are so numerous that they may far outweigh the benefits.
Probably the greatest biological problem of the future, as it is of the present, will be to find ways to curb
environmental pollution without interfering with man's constant effort to improve the quality of his life.
Many scientists believe that underlying the spectre of pollution is the problem of surplus human
population. A rise in population necessitates an increase in the operations of modern industry, the waste
products of which increase the pollution of air, water, and soil. The question of how many people the
resources of the Earth can support is one of critical importance.
Although the solutions to these and many other problems are yet to be found, they do indicate the need
for biologists to work with social scientists and other members of society in order to determine the
requirements necessary for maintaining a healthy and productive planet. For although many of man's
present and future problems may seem to be essentially social, political, or economic in nature, they have
biological ramifications that could affect the very existence of life itself.

have also adopted relatively universal co-educational systems. The greatest negative reaction to coeducation has been felt in the teaching systems of the Latin countries, where the sexes have usually been
separated at both primary and secondary levels, according to local conditions.
A number of studies have indicated that girls seem to perform better overall and in science in particular in
single-sex classes: during the adolescent years, pressure to conform to stereotypical female gender roles
may disadvantage girls in traditionally male subjects, making them reluctant to volunteer for experimental
work while taking part in lessons. In Britain, academic league tables point to high standards achieved in
girls' schools. Some educationalists therefore suggest segregation of the sexes as a good thing,
particularly in certain areas, and a number of schools are experimenting with the idea.
